What is too difficult? Download the pcre-Package, open a terminal, proceed to your download folder and enter the commands (copy&paste) of that thread. We can do this step by step here, it is not difficult.

Maybe it's strange for you but I'm not a technical programmer, I'm a graphic designer. So I never used terminal, commands, threads... I downloaded the package of PCRE-8.38 but there are a lot of files inside (???) where do I have to put this folder? Do I open the terminal.app of my MAC and then? Download folder about what? And the command... in which file is it? I'm sorry... also about my bad English!

Put it where you like, that does not matter. Unpack, if it is packed.

Yes, open a terminal. Then you should remember the name of the folder, where you put the files from above. Lets say its /User/Stefi71/pcre-8.38 (or similar, you should see that in the file explorer). Type the following command into the terminal:

The last command will prompt for a password, simply enter your own password. And now you are done. You will see lots of output after each line (always hit Enter for each line and wait and see). If nothing goes wrong, you now start Xampp again and try to continue WordPress Installation.

I put the PCRE-8.38 folder in the xamppfiles folder, then I pasted in the terminal what you can see above. Now I don't know...About the final password, which password? My user password or the password of the database?Thanks...

Ok... I am going to resolve this problem because I would like to use xampp but not now, I can't waste other time in these days because I need to use wordpress to do my exercises. I've installed another software and wordpress works without mistakes. Thanks for your assistance!

Hi I have the same problem as Nobbie!I´m also a Graphic designer and just trying to understand this hole new world. I went trough all the steps and everything seems to work (i have no error about the C compiler)...but i finally got on the password step and i can´t type anything there (there is just the key symbol). Do you know why? i have the feeling it will be something really silly...sorry for that!
